"General! Our army is here, the Jingzhou army will inevitably come to attack, the reason why our army can hold it before is because Guan Yu is extremely afraid of the Seventh Army that came to help, and failed to attack our army, and now Huo Shaoxian's men and horses have arrived here, and our army's reinforcements like Gongzi Zhangbu and Zhang Junyi are all north of Xiangyang, which can be said to be beyond the reach of the whip! If you stick to it like this, you're just adding thousands of bones for nothing! Full pet said slowly.

"Boning, you once said that once Xiangfan is lost, there will be no barrier south of the river of our army, and Yuzhou and Wanluo will become the places where the Jingzhou army will attack. Why has the tone changed now? Cao Ren was puzzled.

"The general doesn't know, this battle of Xiangfan is not a battle of gains and losses in one city and one place, but a protracted battle involving the strength of both sides, Jingnan Huo Yi can come here, it means that the Jiangdong Sun clan has been defeated under Huo Shaoxian's men, and there is even no possibility of attacking the west, so Huo Shaoxian can divide his troops and come here! Gongzi Zhang's withdrawal, but also to see the situation in Xiangfan at this moment, is based on his advice to the general, can also be defended or retreated, in fact, we are trapped here, the news is far less comprehensive than the outside Gongzi Zhanglai. Gongzi Zhang can say such a thing, which means that Fancheng is already a place that has been abandoned. "It's full of excitement.

Cao Ren was still unmoved, just lowered his head, and for a long time, he looked up at the thin Confucian general in front of him, Cao Ren said: "Boning, if Guan Yu pours all his strength to attack our army, Boning thinks that how long can our army hold it?" ”

Man Pet paced slowly, as if thinking about something, and then turned to look at Cao Ren: "But in ten days, the city will be broken!" This is still in the case that Guan Yu's men don't know the details of my city, if not. I can't keep it for three days! ”

Cao Ren slapped the bookcase in front of him fiercely, and said loudly: "Fuck me!" Our army has always been tightly guarded against Fancheng, how can he, Guan Yunchang, know the details of our city? As long as I hold on here for ten days, I will definitely be able to wait for reinforcements from the prime minister. At that time, Fancheng, which our army was holding onto, would definitely become a thorn in Guan Yunchang's heart, but he couldn't pull it out! ”

The pet sighed helplessly. I didn't think that I would talk badly, but I still couldn't say Cao Ren: "In this way, the general also ordered the soldiers to rest and recuperate, and the food in the city can be taken out to feed the soldiers, so that there is hope to hold on!" ”

Cao Ren nodded, and immediately gave the order.

However, it was said that Fancheng had already begun to prepare for the battle of defending the city, and this Man Bunning was worthy of being a famous wise general in Cao's army, and he could actually be in the trapped city. There is such a deep understanding of the entire battle situation in the case of news blockage. Indeed, he deserves the name of a wise general.

At this moment, the Jingzhou military horses were rapidly mobilized. More than 3,000 people followed Deng Ai to a dense forest near the left of Fancheng to cut wood and make special siege equipment, and Ye Zhi knew the details of the city very well. At the beginning, it was he who led a group of old people from the scout camp to lurk in Fancheng for a long time. I got the detailed picture of this city.

It is based on Huo Yi and a group of special discipline engineering scholars who came out of Jingnan Academy, and these students are learning special knowledge such as city casting and the making of military utensils. These students played a big role at this moment, and according to Huo Yi's ideas and some particularities in Fancheng, these siege equipment were designed.

Guan Yu saw that Huo Yi seemed to have an understanding of Fancheng, and even prescribed the right medicine to formulate such a peculiar siege equipment, he couldn't help but settle down, and he was also lazy, and led more than 40,000 military horses of the Jingzhou army to Xiangyang City.

Huo Yi took on the task of conquering Fancheng on his shoulders, and Huo Yi was also very confident in breaking through this special city known as the war and the first good general of the Cao army - Cao Zixiao.

Huo Yi led these tens of thousands of foot soldiers, assigned men and horses, surrounded the east city by himself, Gao Jin besieged the north city, Wang Chong besieged the south city, Deng Ai led thousands of military horses to cruise around the left side of the west city, in Fancheng, the west gate is the only city that the Jingzhou army has not encircled, in fact, in Huo Yi's view, the west gate is the most dangerous place, Deng Ai led the elite crossbowmen selected from the army, and the soldiers who wore Yang in a hundred steps abounded.

It was Huo Yi who was not worried that Cao Ren's men and horses would evacuate from the West Gate when they couldn't hold on, and on the surface, this was the life gate that Huo Yi left for Cao Ren, and it was also the door to kill.

When Huo Yi's men and horses were not yet fully built the siege equipment, they only made noise from various gates, and did not attack the city, but only disturbed the morale of the defenders in the city, and they were also doing a strategy to exhaust the enemy.

Cao Ren was very annoyed by this trick, although he knew that the enemy's means were to fatigue the enemy, but he still had to guard against it, and the side defending the city was always extremely passive, and Cao Zixiao, who was well versed in the principle of defending the city, knew the truth, it was nothing more than that Huo Shao saw that he had less military strength in the city, so he assigned soldiers to disturb the defenders in the city in turn, so that the soldiers and horses in the city were tired of coping.

Cao Ren was also extremely smart, but only the head of the city put down the necessary vigilance troops, and all the military horses went down to the hidden soldier cave to rest, if the enemy army really came to attack the city, he immediately rushed out of the hidden soldier cave and engaged the enemy army. But the cave is too humid and hot, how can these soldiers rest well?

On the third day, the siege equipment had been built, but the most conspicuous thing was a hundred strange-looking wells, which were said to be because they had all the characteristics of the wells, but their skins were covered with iron sheets. And its physique is even larger, and the complex structure makes him look extremely hideous. Due to the special mechanical principle, this well fence can be raised and lowered according to the height of the city. While saving a lot of materials, it is more practical. Even at Huo Yi's request, these well bars could be loaded and unloaded.

The Battle of Fancheng finally began.

Before dawn, the Jingnan army launched a siege battle, Cao Ren's military horses were still cooking, and the hungry soldiers went to the city, and when the dawn came, what greeted the eyes of Cao's soldiers was nearly a hundred behemoths slowly approaching from the three city gates.

Cao Jun had not experienced the siege of the city before, but at this moment he was still shocked by this big deal, because the well fence was often wooden, and the defenders in the city only needed to shoot fierce rockets with bed crossbows to destroy it.

But after the bed crossbow was shot, the well fence actually did not catch fire, and what was even more shocking was that the bed crossbow shot the well rail, and several finger-thick crossbow arrows were only nailed to the surface of the well rail, and even failed to penetrate.

The soldiers of the Cao army were frightened, and the well fence could not be destroyed, which meant that some of the means in the city were useless, and the Jingzhou army was bound to attack the city.

Cao Ren's eyes were shattered at the moment, and he had not rested well for several days, and he was already on the verge of collapse. The handle of the ring-headed knife in his hand was full of sweat, and the Jingzhou army had already given such a lot of pressure to the city before it approached the city, and once the enemy army approached the city, the consequences could be imagined.

Cao Ren immediately thought of a point, just wait until the well fence is close to the city, and then immediately order the soldiers to resist and overthrow with special halberds, these halberds are originally prepared for those instruments that can get close to the city, so the city has specially made more than 100 long halberds. At this moment, the head of Fancheng City is at a critical moment, and countless Cao soldiers have already held the halberd in their hands.

"Coax", the well fence hit the city.

When Cao Ren was about to order the soldiers to use their halberds to knock down the well fence, he was shocked to find that the Jingzhou soldiers in the well fence took out countless iron hooks and sickles and hooked the city bricks at the head of the city. No matter how the soldiers pushed, the well fence simply did not move.

Just when Cao Ren was shocked, the well fence was actually a little higher, and the head of the well fence was actually the Jingzhou sergeant, from which the crossbow arrows were fired to kill the Cao sergeant at the head of the city, there were indeed several cloud ladders rising inside the well railing, and they were also made of hooks and sickles, hooking the city head to stabilize well, and countless Jingzhou troops appeared in front of the head of the cloud ladder.

Cao Ren's eyes were dark, he hadn't rested for several days, and everything in front of him made Cao Ren exhausted.

Man Boning, who was on his side, reacted very quickly, supported Cao Ren, and pinched Cao Ren's middle man with his fingers. Fortunately, the soldiers at the head of the city were dealing with the Jingzhou army, and they did not realize that the main general had fainted.

Not long after, Cao Ren woke up from a coma, looked full of favors, and said with regret: "I regret not listening to Berning's words, how can I live now?" ”
